Podcast 1 Pitch
For my first podcast I am going to interview two young women in the fashion industry. One runs a clothing line and one is an aspiring stylist/ designer. I want to ask them about sustainability in fashion and how they as the future of fashion are taking the steps to not contribute to the the unsustainable practices of fashion.

The podcast I decided to listen to is Song Exploder. This Podcast works so well because it is intended for everyone who likes music. You may not be a fan of all of the artists that are brought onto the show but there is someone for everyone as the guest span a variety of genres and age demographics. The format is that of a host interview with the host interview portions taken out so it reads as mostly the artist just talking to the audience. The ad structure is annoying in my opinion because before you even get into the the podcast there are two ads. I could deal with one, but two before we get into things is a little off putting. The show also ends with another add which I don’t mind too much because you can just click out of the podcast at that point. The time that you get to talk to the actual hosts of the podcast isn’t until the last sponsored section after the chunk of the podcast is done and by then I don’t care to get to know the hosts.
This is a very popular podcast that has won many awards and has been raved about. I think the best way to get into this podcast is by looking for an artist and or song that you really like and starting there. For example, the two that I listened to were Grimes and Cat Power who are two of my favorite artists. If you start with someone you care about you will easily fall for this podcast and the more you listen to the more you might even branch out into songs and artists, you don’t know just because you are intrigued by how songs work and how they are built.
